Excalibur laughs

After Meng Yao pushed the others back, only Yun Yun and Meng Zhang were left in the tent.

Seeing her being so solemn, Yun Yun thought that what she said next must be very important.

Sure enough, Meng Yao put away her smile and said solemnly: "Brother Yun, if someone asks about your background when you return to the capital this time, you just need to tell them that you are a lay disciple of Lingen Temple, and don't reveal anything else. Among them, you can't trust anyone except me, brother-in-law and Ah Yue."

Yun Yun thought of what his father said before, that the royal family often fought brothers to fight for power, so he understood Meng Yao's worry.

But suddenly remembered something, and asked tentatively, "What about Commander Yao?"

Meng Yao obviously didn't consider that Yun Yun would ask this question, so she hesitated for a moment, then looked at Meng Zhang again.

Meng Zhang didn't speak, but shook his head slowly.

Seeing this, Yunyun asked, "Your Majesty and the City Lord mean that even Commander Yao can't be trusted?"

Meng Yao lowered her voice and said helplessly: "Commander Yao's loyalty is not to be doubted. As the commander of the Imperial Army, it is her duty to be loyal to the Emperor, but that's all."

She paused for a moment, then said with distress: "She is only loyal to the Emperor. If I were the Emperor, then naturally there is no need to worry, but..."

She didn't say what happened next, but Yun Yun understood that once Meng Yao was no longer the Emperor, Commander Yao would no longer listen to her orders.

Thinking of the dangers in the palace, Yun Yun couldn't help feeling a little scared, so he bravely asked Meng Yao, "Your Majesty, is there someone coveting the throne?"

Meng Yao smiled helplessly, and said leisurely: "It's natural, the patriarch of the clan, with such great power and glory, no one will be tempted, but if the time doesn't come, even if I don't guard against them, they will grab it." If you don't leave, the time has come, and no matter how I guard against it, I won't be able to keep this throne."

Seeing Yun Yun's blank face, she explained: "The selection of the patriarch of the human race is different from that of the other three clans. The patriarchs of the other three clans are all selected among fathers and sons, brothers, or people who are related by blood. In the human race, since ancient times, only women can be selected by the dragon spirit to become a human dragon, and they cannot marry and have children for life, so the throne cannot be hereditary."

"what?"

After hearing this, Yunyun couldn't help but exclaimed in surprise, he didn't expect the human emperor of the human race to be born in this way.

For a woman, it is too cruel to have to be alone all her life.

Yunyun actually felt a little sorry for Meng Yao, as a human emperor, she had a lot of glory, but she was destined to be alone.

Meng Yao seemed to see what Yun Yun was thinking, smiled calmly, and said: "Actually, human dragons have always been there, but human emperors are not. After being selected by Long Ling, several dragon lords from the other three races will have extremely powerful abilities. Skill, so it is easy to be discovered. And there are no obvious signs after the human dragon is selected by the dragon spirit, so many times the human dragon cannot be discovered, and it cannot become the emperor. Many people are not selected by the dragon spirit I found out that they are still living the lives of ordinary people. When they die or lose their virginity, Longling will look for the next host. I was selected by Longling when I was 13 years old, and I was fortunate enough to be discovered and became the emperor. Before me, the power of the human race was always in the hands of the elders of the clan. After I became the emperor, the power of the Meng family grew stronger, but I also offended many dignitaries in the clan, so I have to be cautious. Although people want to see the Meng family decline, as long as I am here, they dare not do anything out of the ordinary."

Yun Yun was horrified and said, "Don't they want someone to be around?"

Meng Yao smiled, feeling more fond of this young man in her heart, and said: "Yun, you are still young, and when you get older, you will know that interests are above all else. For ordinary people of the human race, they need a They want a human emperor to protect them and lead them to victory, but for some people in the clan, they don’t need a human emperor. Because of their blood, the human race cannot have great attainments in profound arts, and many people will not You can only reach the realm of the other three races in their teens. Once the war breaks out, the human race will be powerless to fight. We can only seek the protection of the spirit race. However, if you don't even have human dragons, what qualifications do you have to negotiate with them? Interests must be valued between people, not to mention major events between clans. Those people understand these reasons, but they don't care. Even if a war breaks out, they will not go to the battlefield, and even if they break through the city, they will Able to escape to places where war does not reach, leaving innocent civilians and soldiers willing to die."

Yun Yun really couldn't believe it. Could it be that the interests of a person or a family must be at the cost of sacrificing the lives and happiness of others?

Is the life and death of thousands of creatures not more important than the interests of a small family?

He even regretted agreeing to Meng Yao to go with her to that right and wrong place, I don't know what will be waiting for me.

Meng Yao's eyes seemed to be able to see through everything, and she comforted Yun Yun and said, "Don't worry, as long as you do what I say, nothing will happen to you. You are not experienced in the world, and your state of mind is too simple. Don't be impulsive when encountering many things. The palace is a dangerous place. To be honest, if it wasn't for Ah Yue's illness, I wouldn't want to let you go through this muddy water. In the days to come, I won't force you to do things you don't like, but you You must not let others know your relationship with us in front of people, this is also for your safety."

Yunyun naturally understood her good intentions. In a place like the royal palace, a wrong sentence could bring death, so he nodded and said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty, Yunyun will definitely remember your teachings."

Meng Yao nodded slightly, and said, "It's getting late, we should start our journey."

After finishing speaking, he signaled Meng Zhang to take Yun Yun out.

Meng Zhang understood, and walked straight towards the cloud, with no expression of joy or anger on his face.

Yunyun was still very afraid of him, and when he saw him approaching, he stretched out his hand consciously as if to please him.

Meng Zhang was obviously taken aback, then smiled contemptuously, and said sarcastically, "You're pretty smart!"

Yun Yun didn't dare to talk back to him, and he was smiling, but he was very unconvinced in his heart.

Seeing that Yunyun was honest, Meng Zhang didn't make things difficult for him. He gently helped him up and walked out of the tent. He seemed to remember something, and said to Yunyun softly: "Many people have seen what happened today. If someone When asked why Commander Yao personally took you down the mountain, you tell them that Commander Yao dare not neglect you because you are a disciple of Master Jingming, understand?"

Yun nodded and asked again: "Could it be that what happened here will spread to the palace?"

Meng Zhang didn't stop walking, and said with a sneer, "Their eyes and ears are all over the place. This kind of thing will definitely reach their ears, but one day, I will remove all these eyes and ears, leaving no one behind!"

His tone was ferocious and terrifying, Yun Yun secretly glanced at him, the murderous look in his eyes made Yun Yun's heart skip a beat.

Now Yunyun finally knows that Meng Zhang has been very polite to him.
